Just looks like a well worn mm that has possibly been flattened through circulation.

I know that it's flat by wear over the years, I was really wondering about the tip of the bottom of the s does anything look off there, or does it look correct. Thanks

Normal appearance for the amount of circulation, could be an inverted S.
